Ducati Monster Forum

What about someone hosting a photo album somewhere where we could download some of our favorite pictures of people from recent meet-ups?  Kind of a "family" album sort of thing (we've got an awesome thread for bikes already, so why not one for the folks who ride the silly things!).  It could be a sticky.  Maybe?

So how do y'all feel about a People of the DFWM Photo Album thread?   I know I've got at least a dozen really great shots of folks from over the last several years that I think most people would find kind of fun.  Maybe it woul be nice for everyone to share one or two of their favorite DFWM people photos all in one convenient location?  [coffee]

That's a great idea but I still will pay $10 to not have someone post a pic of me! [cheeky]

That sounds like a great idea, we could include the username/pw in the calendar email group so anyone can login and upload there own or edit it (so some people [brian] wont pregnant dog, I mean uhhh).

Maybe a photobucket or smugsmug, those are both pretty good hosts, and come with alot of space...

I'm willing to post more just for that reason!

yeah, only put the person's DFWM screen-name, if any titles are supplied at all... might help to start putting names with faces

I really hate pics of moi... I think y'all can see why  [puke]

There.  Fixed it for 'ya.  So how about something along these lines; bikes and peeps  ;D 

And as I recall, you've got some great ones from the last Hill Country trip, Scott.  in fact, I think there was a whole series...   [evil]

wow thats so old pic! that is back in 06!
ooo the good ol 999 days...

yeah, I think I was young then!!!!!  [laugh]

I wouldn't stretch the imagination that much... but you have cleaned up since then!  [laugh] [laugh]

I've got two suggestions to offer.

First, I already have my gallery that I use for my car and my Ducati.  The system allows for user accounts and rights for users to upload their own pics.  My album is:
http://www.barneephife.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=60 (http://www.barneephife.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=60)

Second, I like how William has been using Google for maps and calendar.  I know there is a photo section there, but I'm not sure how conducive it is to "group use".  Further investigation is warranted.

Thats a great idea Jim, if your not in the market of selling your bike anytime soon (again!)   [beer] we could do that... I'll make a subdomain so we can reroute to a shorter url or something for the non-savy and hard to find link...

Picasa is blocked at work, but I'll look into it when I get a chance. Google's usually pretty good about tying their products together so I'm interested to see how this could link into the whole Calendar and Maps functionality.

I have a picture of you that I'll take $10 dollars for. ;D

cdc

youhide.com then try picasa, come on now...

blocked...   [bang]

can you fix my quote to spell my name correctly.  :'(

what about using a google group, if picasa doesn't work well with groups uploading photos/albums...?  http://groups.google.com/group/dfw-ducati/files?upload=1

weird, who put a pic of rich and will bickering at each other on there?

done.  [thumbsup]

looks like we had the same english teacher.

 [laugh]

I thought that might make you fix it quickly...  [laugh] [laugh]

oh, I'm totally changing it back now.  ;)

I can never remember.... Is it Lame or Insane McCain  [laugh]

d@mn, we're talking some sh!t.... Hope everyone knows it's all fun, no malice aforethought [thumbsup]

abso-freakin-lutely.  [thumbsup]

The Google Group thing sounds promising.  I've never tried Picasa but I've heard good things about it... So which ever one is more user-friendly would get my vote.

let me know and I will create a folder on my smugmug site for DFWM photos
http://haywyre.smugmug.com (http://haywyre.smugmug.com) or if blocked use  https://haywyre.smugmug.com (https://haywyre.smugmug.com)

Awesome!  That would be great if you don't mind  ;D  I think there's quite a few folks who would want to contribute  ;D

Ok I got it setup. You can submit photos by Cell phone or by email.  They will go to a temp folder until I move them to the DFWM folder

Here are the instructions.
Compose an email containing a photo to haywyre@email.smugmug.com.
Type 2580 into the subject line.
Type the photo's caption into the body of the email (optional).
Send.
